Grandpa

I remember as a child when holidays began
I would always go and stay with you and sweet old grand
All my days were filled with laughter always things to do
My fondest memories were made with you

As a teenager my friends would go to summercamp
But again I would prefere to be with you and grand
And eventhough when I grew up and went abroad
When problems came along of you I thought

Grandpa - can you hear me now
Grandpa - find a way somehow
Grandpa - you know I loved you dear
Cause grandpa - you were always there

When I returnes your health just wasn´t all that good
But the stories you´d still tell from my young childhood
Then one day you were too tired to keep going on
Your heart just stopped - you couldn´t tag along

I went to say goodbye to you on that final day
a letter and a rose by your side I lay
All the memories came back and I smiled through my tears
Cause after all I had you here for thirty years

Grandpa - can you hear me now
Grandpa - find a way somehow
Grandpa - you know I loved you dear
Cause grandpa - you were always there
Grandpa - I miss you
